[male vocals] Oh,
Lord,
we
seek
Your
comfort
now
Rest
in
peace,
dear
Sakala
Bana
John,
Bana
Chipeta,
Bana
Kulu
Julie
Your
voice
has
faded
into
the
quiet
morning
light
We
look
for
you
in
the
kitchen
and
the
hallway
But
only
shadows
remain
of
your
guiding
sight
You
walked
with
grace
through
all
the
changing
seasons
But
you
left
us
waiting
for
a
final
word
to
say
We
are
your
grandchildren,
left
here
with
these
reasons
To
weep
for
the
sunshine
that
you
took
away
Oh,
Sakala
Chipeta,
you’
ve
gone
home
to
glory
Your
journey
on
this
earth
has
reached
its
end
We
are
holding
tight
to
every
piece
of
your
story
Though
our
broken
hearts
refuse
to
ever
mend
Yes
Lord,
we
miss
you,
praise
Him
for
the
memories
Rest
your
weary
soul
in
the
arms
of
the
King
We
love
you
Grandmother,
through
all
of
our
centuries
Of
songs
and
of
prayers
that
we’
re
gonna
sing
Charles
is
crying
every
single
day
by
the
doorway
Missing
the
wisdom
that
you
used
to
impart
No
one
teaches
us
the
way
you
did
in
your
own
way
Leaving
a
hollow,
aching
space
inside
his
heart
You
were
the
foundation,
the
rock
that
held
us
steady
How
do
we
walk
this
path
without
your
hand
to
lead?
We
weren't
prepared,
no,
we
were
never
ready
To
plant
the
harvest
without
your
holy
seed
Oh,
Sakala
Chipeta,
you’
ve
gone
home
to
glory
Your
journey
on
this
earth
has
reached
its
end
We
are
holding
tight
to
every
piece
of
your
story
Though
our
broken
hearts
refuse
to
ever
mend
Yes
Lord,
we
miss
you,
praise
Him
for
the
memories
Rest
your
weary
soul
in
the
arms
of
the
King
We
love
you
Grandmother,
through
all
of
our
centuries
Of
songs
and
of
prayers
that
we’
re
gonna
sing
Glory,
glory,
the
heavens
opened
wide
for
you
Thank
You
Jesus
for
the
time
we
got
to
share
Even
in
the
sorrow,
we
know
the
truth
is
true
That
you
are
resting
peacefully
up
there
Amen,
amen,
let
the
angels
sing
your
name
Grandmother,
you’
re
safe,
you’
re
finally
home
Your
legacy
is
written
in
the
lives
you’
ve
mended
In
the
lessons
that
we
carry
in
our
souls
Though
your
physical
walk
with
us
has
ended
You
are
the
light
that
makes
our
spirit
whole
We’
ll
teach
the
younger
ones
the
way
you
taught
us
With
the
patience
and
the
kindness
that
you
showed
We
cherish
all
the
blessings
that
you
brought
us
As
you
walk
upon
that
golden,
steady
road
Oh,
Sakala
Chipeta,
you’
ve
gone
home
to
glory
Your
journey
on
this
earth
has
reached
its
end
We
are
